Laser Tattoo Removal

Beyond Ink: The Journey of Undoing Tattoo Regret

With our RevLite SI laser, you can say goodbye to tattoos you’ve outgrown—safely, effectively, and with minimal discomfort or risk of scarring. Whether you’re looking for complete removal, refinement of blurry lines, or preparing for a cover-up, we’re here to help you start fresh.

How Does It Work?

The RevLite SI’s Q-switched Nd:YAG laser uses powerful laser beams to reach below the surface of the skin to fade away unwanted tattoos. These laser pulses target the ink and break it up into tiny pieces that can be expelled through your body’s natural processes. After the first session, your tattoo will begin to fade and will eventually be removed completely.

What Can I Expect?

Laser tattoo removal isn’t the most comfortable treatment—but it’s quick, and most people find it manageable. Sessions typically last under 30 minutes, sometimes only a few seconds depending on tattoo size.

The sensation is often compared to a rubber band snap or the sting of a bad sunburn. For added comfort, we recommend using a numbing cream like Dr. Numb (available in-clinic) or Emla, applied at least 45 minutes before your session.

The number of sessions required depends on the tattoo’s size, ink color, depth, and your overall health. Lighter, more delicate tattoos typically fade faster than dense, dark ink. For best results, plan to wait 8–12 weeks between sessions to allow full healing and ink breakdown.

Mild, temporary side effects may include redness, swelling, blistering, and whitening of the skin—all signs that the healing process is underway.

Aftercare & Side Effects

After your session, your skin needs time and space to recover. Here’s what to expect:

Common Side Effects:

Redness, swelling, or itching
Blistering (usually within 8–24 hours)

What To Do:

Ice the area intermittently for the first hour
Let blisters heal naturally—do not pop or pick at them
Use Vitamin E ointment three times daily for the first 48 hours
From day 3, switch to Vaseline or Aquaphor to keep skin hydrated
Avoid swimming, baths, or soaking the area for 5–7 days
Keep out of saunas, hot tubs, and excessive heat

To reduce itchiness, you can apply ice, rubbing alcohol, cortisone cream, or take antihistamines as needed.

Why Session Timing Matters

Spacing out your treatments is essential for safe and effective tattoo removal. Getting treated too soon can lead to:

Skin damage from incomplete healing
Reduced results due to the body not fully clearing ink
Uneven fading or overtreated skin
Increased pain from heightened sensitivity

Stick to the recommended 8–12 weeks between sessions for optimal results and skin recovery.

Will I Scar?

No. Laser tattoo removal with RevLite SI is non-ablative, meaning it doesn’t cut or damage the skin surface. The laser uses photoacoustic energy—ultrafast pulses of light and sound that break up ink without heating or harming surrounding tissue.

Unlike microdermabrasion, IPL, or fractional lasers, this technology targets only the pigment, not your skin—so there’s no risk of permanent scarring.
